WINTER VIA FERRATA<br />
A very special trip awaits you on the winter via ferrata<br />
in Saas-Grund. It starts right at the edge of the village,<br />
then it’s a steep climb upwards. The approx. 150 metres<br />
of altitude gain are easily manageable if you are fit and<br />
have a head for heights. The tour is led by a mountain<br />
guide and culminates in a spectacular abseil of about<br />
40 metres. The whole experience lasts about two hours<br />
and is perfect for families, companies, clubs or other<br />
groups.<br />

ICE CLIMBING AND CLIMBING DOME<br />
The Saas-Fee Guides offer ice climbing of a special<br />
kind. You reach the ice-blue glacier walls on snowshoes,<br />
where you climb in safety. Incredible landscapes<br />
and a unique experience are guaranteed!<br />
In previous years, ice climbing has been offered exclusively<br />
for the pros at the Ice Climbing World Cup, but<br />
it is now open to all interested climbers. In winter, the<br />
Saas-Fee car park is home to climbing routes with varying<br />
degrees of difficulty.<br />
Anyone with some climbing experience who wants to<br />
have a go on the ice can do so during the Ice Climbing<br />
World Cup at the Kalbermatten sports ground. You will<br />
be supported by trained staff.<br />
SUNRISE SKIING<br />
The highest point accessible by cable car above Saas-<br />
Fee at sunrise. Absolute silence, the first rays of sunshine<br />
and perfectly groomed slopes await early risers who<br />
want to make their first tracks through the fresh snow.<br />
Beforehand, a hearty breakfast is waiting in the Allalin<br />
revolving restaurant. The colourful view of the surrounding<br />
mountains completes the unique experience.<br />

GORGE ALPINE / ALPINE CANYON<br />
Led by a mountain guide, you will climb through<br />
the wild Feeschlucht gorge, which leads down<br />
from Saas-Fee to Saas-Grund. The spectacular<br />
tour passes frozen waterfalls and crosses suspension<br />
bridges, ladders and steel cables. Highlights<br />
of the crossing are a fast zip line and cable pulleys.<br />
The tour is not suitable for people who are afraid of<br />
heights and is not permitted for children under 12<br />
years of age. All visitors must be accompanied by<br />
a mountain guide.<br />

With the last rays of sunshine, you can enjoy an<br />
impressive view of the surrounding four-thousand-metre<br />
peaks and a deep view of the Laggintal valley.<br />
